Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of copper connector technology, specifically a copper connector with a ball-shaped connector. Background Technology

[0002] In core industrial fields such as fluid transportation and electrical connections, copper fittings are key components for achieving reliable connections between pipelines or parts. Their connection stability, angle adaptability, and ease of installation and maintenance directly determine the operating efficiency and long-term reliability of the entire system. Currently, most mainstream copper fittings on the market adopt a fixed structure design, which can only meet the docking requirements in one direction. When there are dimensional deviations during system installation, or when the connection angle needs to be adjusted during later maintenance, traditional fixed-structure copper fittings are often difficult to adapt, which can easily lead to problems such as sealing failure, fluid leakage, or current transmission interruption. In severe cases, this can directly cause equipment downtime, significantly increasing maintenance costs and creating significant safety hazards.

[0003] To address the core pain point of flexible connection angle adjustment, some copper connector products have begun to integrate spherical connection structures. For example, the "copper connector with a spherical connector" disclosed in Chinese utility model patent CN201549619U achieves adjustable connection angles through the mating structure of the spherical connector body and the connector seat, thus mitigating the poor adaptability of traditional fixed connectors to some extent. However, these existing spherical copper connectors still have key technological shortcomings, particularly in their poor fixing method design. The aforementioned patent uses an integrated fixing structure, meaning that when the spherical connection part is damaged and needs replacement, the user cannot replace the faulty component individually; the entire copper connector must be disassembled and replaced. This not only prolongs equipment downtime and severely impacts normal production operations but also results in unnecessary waste of component materials, further increasing operating costs. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems mentioned in the background section, the present invention aims to provide a copper connector with a ball-shaped connector, which has the advantage of facilitating user replacement of the ball-shaped connector and solves the problem that existing copper connectors are inconvenient for users to replace the ball-shaped connector separately.

[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a copper connector with a spherical connector, comprising: a copper connector, a connecting mechanism, and a spherical connector connecting mechanism. The connecting mechanism is fixedly connected to both sides of the front and back of the copper connector. The connecting mechanism increases the connection stability of the copper connector components and prevents the components of the copper connector from falling off. The ball connector connecting mechanism is installed on the top of the copper connector. The detachable copper connector of the ball connector connecting mechanism allows the components of the ball connector connecting mechanism to be separated from the copper connector, achieving the effect of convenient replacement.

[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. This utility model uses a copper connector and bolts and nuts in conjunction with a connecting ring to fix the two together, which not only ensures the connection stability of the main structure of the copper connector, but also provides a basis for disassembly for later maintenance. At the same time, through the cooperation structure of the screw, threaded plate, fixed bearing, connecting rod and clamping plate in the ball connector connection mechanism, the ball connector can be replaced separately without disassembling and replacing the entire copper connector.

[0007] 2. This utility model designs the copper connector as a movable connection structure of a bottom combination connector and a top combination connector, and uses bolts and nuts in conjunction with a connecting ring to achieve double fixing. The top of the connecting ring is connected to the top combination connector, and the bottom is connected to the bottom combination connector. On the one hand, the circumferential fixing effect of the connecting ring can greatly improve the connection stability of the main structure of the copper connector, and avoid leakage and power failure caused by loose parts during fluid transportation or electrical connection.

[0008] 3. This utility model achieves convenient disassembly and individual replacement of the ball connector by means of the coordinated structure of the ball connector connecting mechanism components. Attached Figure Description

[0011] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0012] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the copper connector with a ball joint in this embodiment includes: a copper connector 1, a connecting mechanism 2, and a ball joint connecting mechanism 3. The connecting mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to both sides of the front and back of the copper connector 1. The connecting mechanism 2 increases the connection stability of the copper connector 1 components and prevents the components of the copper connector 1 from falling off. The ball connector connecting mechanism 3 is installed on the top of the copper connector 1. The ball connector connecting mechanism 3 is detachable from the copper connector 1, so that the components of the ball connector connecting mechanism 3 can be separated from the copper connector 1, achieving the effect of convenient replacement.

[0013] refer to Figure 2 The copper connector 1 includes a bottom combination connector 101, a top combination connector 102 is movably installed on the top of the bottom combination connector 101, and connecting rings 103 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top combination connector 102 by bolts and nuts. A connecting pipe 104 is connected to the outside of the connecting rings 103, and the bottom of the inner side of the connecting rings 103 is fixedly connected to the bottom combination connector 101 by bolts and nuts.

[0014] In this embodiment, the copper connector 1 is designed as a movable connection structure between the bottom combination connector 101 and the top combination connector 102. Bolts and nuts are used in conjunction with the connecting ring 103 to achieve double fixation. The top of the connecting ring 103 is connected to the top combination connector 102, and the bottom is connected to the bottom combination connector 101. On the one hand, the circumferential fixing effect of the connecting ring 103 can greatly improve the connection stability of the main structure of the copper connector 1, and avoid leakage and power failure caused by loose parts during fluid transportation or electrical connection.

[0015] refer to Figure 2 The ball joint connection mechanism 3 includes a ball joint 31. A protective shell 32 is fixedly connected to both the front and back of the top combination joint 102. A screw 33 is provided at the bottom of the protective shell 32. The top of the screw 33 passes through the protective shell 32 and extends into the interior of the protective shell 32. A threaded plate 34 is threadedly connected to the surface of the screw 33. The two sides of the threaded plate 34 are slidably connected to the two sides of the inner wall of the protective shell 32. Fixed bearings 35 are fixedly connected to both sides of the top of the threaded plate 34. A connecting rod 36 is fixedly connected to the inner ring of the fixed bearing 35. A mating groove 37 is provided at each of the four corners of the bottom of the ball joint 31. A clamping plate 38 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod 36 through the mating groove 37 and extending into the interior of the mating groove 37.

[0016] This embodiment achieves convenient disassembly and individual replacement of the ball connector 31 through the coordinated structure of the three components of the ball connector connection mechanism.

[0017] refer to Figure 5 The connecting mechanism 2 includes a connecting plate 21, which is fixedly connected to both sides of the front and back of the bottom combination joint 101. A connecting plate 22 is fixedly connected to both sides of the front and back of the top combination joint 102. A threaded sleeve 23 is provided on the top of the connecting plate 22. The bottom of the threaded sleeve 23 passes through the connecting plate 22 and extends into the interior of the connecting plate 22. A threaded bolt 24 is provided on the bottom of the connecting plate 21. The top of the threaded bolt 24 passes through the connecting plate 21 and extends into the interior of the threaded sleeve 23.

[0018] This embodiment further enhances the connection stability between the bottom combination connector 101 and the top combination connector 102 by setting the connecting mechanism 2. Compared with the fixing method that relies solely on the connecting ring 103, this double fixing structure can disperse the connection stress and avoid loosening or damage to a single connection part due to concentrated stress during long-term use.

[0019] refer to Figure 4 The top of the ball joint 31 is fixedly connected to the connecting pipe 4 by bolts and nuts, and the bottom of the ball joint 31 is in contact with the top of the top combination joint 102.

[0020] In this embodiment, by setting the connecting pipe 4, on the one hand, the connection reliability between the connecting pipe 4 and the ball connector 31 is ensured, avoiding loosening and leakage problems during fluid transportation or electrical connection; on the other hand, the detachable structure of the bolts and nuts allows the connecting pipe 4 to be flexibly replaced with different specifications and models according to actual use needs, improving the versatility of the copper connector.

[0021] refer to Figure 2 The bottom of the screw 33 is fixedly connected to a rotating disk 5, and the surface of the rotating disk 5 is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0022] This embodiment increases the contact area when the user operates the screw 33 by setting the rotating disk 5. Compared with directly rotating the screw 33, it is more labor-saving and convenient, and reduces the difficulty of fixing or disassembling the ball connector 31.

[0023] refer to Figure 2 Both sides of the screw 33 are fixedly connected to a stabilizing bearing 6, and the outer side of the outer ring of the stabilizing bearing 6 is fixedly connected to the inside of the protective shell 32.

[0024] In this embodiment, by setting a stabilizing bearing 6, the screw 33 can be positioned in both directions, limiting the radial displacement of the screw 33 during rotation and preventing the threaded plate 34 from sliding and shifting due to the shaking of the screw 33.

[0025] refer to Figure 2 Both sides of the threaded plate 34 are fixedly connected to sliders 7, and both sides of the inner wall of the protective shell 32 are provided with sliding grooves, and the sliders 7 are slidably connected to the sliding grooves.

[0026] In this embodiment, by setting the slider 7 and the groove, the up and down movement of the threaded plate 34 can be guided, so as to prevent the threaded plate 34 from rotating or deviating under the drive of the screw 33.

[0027] This invention utilizes a rotating disk 5, which in turn rotates a screw 33. The screw 33 then moves a threaded plate 34 upwards, which in turn moves a fixed bearing 35. The fixed bearing 35 then moves a connecting rod 36 upwards, which in turn moves a clamping plate 38 upwards, separating the clamping plate 38 from the spherical connector 31. The clamping plate 38 is then rotated 90° to align with the mating groove 37. Finally, the damaged spherical connector 31 is pushed upwards, causing the damaged spherical connector to... 31 separates from the top assembly joint 102, and simultaneously the retaining plate 38 disengages from the mating groove 37, achieving the effect of removing the damaged ball joint 31. After replacing the damaged ball joint 31, the new ball joint 31 is placed on top of the top assembly joint 102 with its bottom in contact with the top assembly joint 102, so that the retaining plate 38 passes through the mating groove 37 on the ball joint 31. Then, the retaining plate 38 is rotated 90° in the opposite direction. After completion, the rotating disk 5 is rotated in the opposite direction. The screw 33 rotates, causing the threaded plate 34 to move downwards. The threaded plate 34 then causes the fixed bearing 35 to move downwards, which in turn causes the connecting rod 36 to move downwards. The connecting rod 36 then causes the clamping plate 38 to move downwards, making the clamping plate 38 tightly contact the ball connector 31. The friction between the ball connector 31 and the clamping plate 38 fixes the clamping plate 38, and the clamping plate 38 also fixes the ball connector 31. If the connecting pipe 4 needs to be replaced, simply unscrew the bolts and nuts between the connecting pipe 4 and the ball connector 31 to complete the disassembly and replacement. If the bottom combination joint 101 or the top combination joint 102 malfunctions, first unscrew the threaded bolt 24 in the connecting mechanism 2 to disengage the threaded bolt 24 from the threaded sleeve 23. Then, unscrew the bolts and nuts connecting the connecting ring 103 to the bottom combination joint 101 and the top combination joint 102. This allows the bottom combination joint 101 and the top combination joint 102 to be separated, and the faulty parts can be replaced individually without replacing the entire copper connector.
